How do you post the refundable security of a tenant. Also, how to post a partial amount from this security to an unpaid invoice of the tenant.

Hello, kalyanherbals.

 

You'll need to set up a liability account where you can track the amount to record a retainer in QuickBooks Online . Here's how:

 

  1. Set up a liability account.
  2. Set up a retainer item.
  3. Create a trust liability bank account if necessary.
  4. Enter a sales receipt or invoice to record the retainer.
  5. Use the retainer as credits.
  6. Transfer the funds from the trust liability account to the operating account.
  7. Then, we can pull up a report to track the retainers.

 

Here are some articles for the complete details about security deposits:
